In a closely contested match, Roda JC Kerkrade emerged victorious over Willem II Tilburg with a 2-1 scoreline. Willem II opened the scoring early in the first half, taking advantage of some disorganization in Roda's defense, but their momentum was disrupted when they received a yellow card in the 20th minute. Roda JC remained composed and strategically equalized before halftime, which significantly boosted their confidence and altered the match’s dynamics.

Roda’s performance was characterized by efficient use of opportunities and disciplined defending. They had a higher number of corner kicks with four compared to Willem II’s two, indicating their capability to exert offensive pressure. Roda's discipline further reflected in their fouling statistics; they recorded no fouls compared to Willem II’s one, showcasing their ability to maintain control without conceding unnecessary free-kicks.

Willem II's inability to capitalize on crucial moments was evident, particularly in the second half where they failed to generate enough attacking momentum. Their single offside was less than Roda’s zero, suggesting a lack of precision in forward movements. Additionally, Roda's defensive resilience was critical, as evidenced by their successful containment of Willem II's set-pieces and offensive plays—effectively managing the game with minimal disciplinary issues, receiving only one yellow card late in the second half.
